Key details for the Smart Edge plan

The Smart Edge plan from TXU Energy rewards households with relatively low energy usage. Here’s everything you need to know about this popular Texas energy plan:

  • 12- or 24-month contract options
  • Fixed rate remains the same for your entire contract
  • $50 bill credit for surpassing 800 kilowatt-hours (kWh) monthly usage
  • 60-day satisfaction guarantee
  • $150–$295 early termination fee (ETF)

When comparing plans on our marketplace, consult the Electricity Facts Label (EFL) for each option. The EFL contains important plan details so you understand exactly what you’re signing up for.

Is the Smart Edge plan right for you?

Smart Edge is tailored for customers who use more than 800 kWh each month — commonly residents of apartments or smaller homes. Check your past bills to find your average usage, because you’ll only get the best rate when your consumption fits this level.

If your usage is usually over 1,000 kWh, you’ll likely get more value from a plan with bill credits for higher-consumption levels.
